Why is it called "name" instead of "url"?

It seems to always be a URL.

Name is the generic identifier on PerformanceEntry objects [1], and we already have ResourceTiming/NavigationTiming that use it to communicate the URL [2]. Admittedly not the greatest semantics, but it is an established and well-known pattern in the RUM space.. I'd prefer that we stick with consistent nomenclature.

Got it, thanks!
